- Nailing both the mother and daughter. He gets extra guy points for that. -- nm - Mop Dec 26, 08:32 5
  - Ah, the Def Leppard. -- nm - David Dec 26, 09:03
  - Not as a fiancee, that's only bonus points if you're a fairly new boyfriend. -- nm - TFox Dec 26, 08:35 3
    - But if he fathered her baby that would mean it happened quite a while ago, probably early on. - Spawn Dec 26, 08:47 2
      - How many do we dock homeboy for not having the good sense to run after he got that done? - TFox Dec 26, 08:49 1

Ok, so with 2 boys and after 3 stops for Christmas plus what we had at home...we only have 1 thing to return. - Jim Dec 26, 08:11 12
- I've got a great strategy if you have lots of returns to do. It's very unorthodox, though. - Mop Dec 26, 08:22
- We have to return POTC2 b/c they meant to buy 3 and failed, and Golden Compass b/c it sucks all the balls ever grown by dudes. -- nm - TFox Dec 26, 08:21 9
  - [deleted] 6
    - What a horribly disappointing movie that was. I thought it would be great, and that Spiderwick would suck. - TFox Dec 26, 08:33 5
      - [deleted] 4
        
        Did you watch it? Because you would be amused by the level of shittiness. -- nm - TFox Dec 26, 08:42 3
        
        well no nekkidness from the Weeds Milf was a big mistake. -- nm - Remlik Dec 26, 08:47 2
        
        Well yes, but I meant shittiness in the other one. Spiderwick sort of ruled. -- nm - TFox Dec 26, 08:51 1

  - I never understand that level of FAIL yet my parents do it all the time. How hard is it to read the package? -- nm - Mop Dec 26, 08:29 1
    - That one was a cooperative goof: mother-in-law was told we needed 3, but was also told that 3 was called "Dead Man's Chest". -- nm - TFox Dec 26, 08:31
- You should just buy a PS3 instead of returning ithe disc. You'll be much more happier. - Ghost of Ken Kutaragi Dec 26, 08:16
Wow, Walmart doesn't have a very big selection of fake Christmas trees. I'm surprised. -- nm - kelly Dec 26, 07:54 4
- We got ours at Old Time Pottery but I see bunches at Menards, Lowes, Home Depot. -- nm - Spawn Dec 26, 08:00
- I thought you learned to go to Target? - Cuzzin Toddnog Dec 26, 07:59 1
  - There's a Walmart right next door to work, so I figured I'd check there first while on my break. -- nm - kelly Dec 26, 08:03

hmm, Gilligan's Island movie hoping to start filming next year with Michael Sera as Gilligan and Beyonce as Ginger.... according to Sam Rubin. -- nm - CrankYanker Dec 26, 07:18 2
- I agree with what someone said on the Movies Board. Cera is not the Gilligan type...may look like him but his style isn't the same -- nm - Beaker - Caveman Finalist Dec 26, 07:33 1
  - Cera as the Professor, McLovin as Gilligan. -- nm - Spawn Dec 26, 08:16

LYC Stroke My Ego Quiz: guess how much weight I've lost in my first 4 weeks on Nutrisystem. - TFox Dec 26, 07:08 13
- Let's see...this is tougher, not knowing what you started at...but I'll guess 6 pounds in Week 1, 4 in Week 2 and 3 and then 5 in Week 4. 19. -- nm - Jim Dec 26, 07:09 11
  - I started at 294. -- nm - TFox Dec 26, 07:09 10
    - Then I'd likely bump that up another 6 pounds or so...but 25 is too nice and even, so my final guess is 24. -- nm - Jim Dec 26, 07:10 9
      - You're close enough to call it, methinks: 22. - TFox Dec 26, 07:14 8
        
        That's awesome!!! Just remember though...it won't always come off that fast. Don't get discouraged when you have a 1 or 2 pound week. - Jim Dec 26, 07:25 2
        
        Yeah, that is part of why I was so surprised, b/c before these last 2 weeks, I only lost like 1 lb the week before. - TFox Dec 26, 07:29 1
